Chapter 11: The Strongest Agent in the Future

"Drip! Mission completed – the confrontation of the strongest! Reward: A random ability from Captain Marvel. Drawing in progress—"

"Congratulations to the host for acquiring the Super Ability – high-speed flight, which allows you to fly in any environment without external aids!"

As Thor drove Carol to the ground for the third time, the system's notification sound finally came through. She may be strong but her fighting capability and experience is nothing compared to him . Few well placed mjolnir strikes can make her fall to ground and then put mjolnir on her .

While flight may seem modest compared to Captain Marvel's other abilities, it's still quite valuable for Thor at this stage. This means he can no longer need to rely on Mjölnir or Stormbreaker for combat in space.

Natalia, who was nearby, was drowsily scrolling through her phone because Thor had requested they record their fight...

Was it really necessary? In her opinion, the combat skills of this powerful-looking woman were rather crude, at least less refined than her own physical skills. As for the strange uncle, his fighting style seemed quite outdated, even barbaric...

God of Thunder? He seemed more like a Spartan from thousands of years ago...

"I think you really need to hone your fighting skills."

Thor shook his head. "People like Yong Rogg aren't strong enough to be defeated by super abilities alone.

There are countless powerful beings in the universe.

When facing truly formidable opponents, physical skills become crucial.

Attacks that can't harm the enemy, no matter how powerful, are useless."

Not just for Carol, but for himself as well. The main reason Thor couldn't defeat Thanos in the final battle was due to the lack of physical skill. Even though his battle axe was indestructible, he had no opportunity to use it effectively against Thanos except for a surprise attack.

Carol nodded. She was aware of this issue. While destroying Ronan's fleet earlier, she had been very fast, but still struggled to dodge many attacks, relying heavily on her strong defense.

It was a costly defeat, but she was still eager to propose a fight using super abilities. However, upon reflection, she felt a bit hesitant about the potential loss.

…

In the evening, everyone gathered in the living room of Maria Rambeau's house to discuss the plans for the following day.

Nick Fury, with his single remaining eye, showed a sly smile when he saw Natalia, who had been brought by Thor...

"I met this child while searching for mjolnir. She's a natural fighter with the potential to become a top agent." Thor handed Natalia over to Nick Fury, confident in her potential.

"Oh?" Nick Fury was familiar with Thor's arrogance, and it was rare to receive praise from him. He looked at Natalia and asked, "What's your name?"

"Natasha Romanoff," Natalia replied calmly. Now that a new chapter of her life had begun, she no longer used her previous name.

"By the way," Thor suddenly remembered something and added, "I don't know how your agents typically operate, but I must remind you that her abilities surpass those of most male agents.

Therefore, I don't want her to be assigned tasks that exploit her strengths as a woman."

This was necessary; otherwise, it would be no different from the Red Room.

Natalia looked at him gratefully.

Nick Fury clearly understood Thor's point.

He nodded and said, "Many people misunderstand the role of an agent.

For top-level agents, what you've mentioned is actually quite rare.

After all, this is a double-edged sword and may even lead to the demise of our own personnel.

Take, for example, the renowned Agent Carter, who has shown favoritism only once... well, or you can check her right eye."

After a pause, he continued, "The method you described is typically reserved for the lowest-level agents. For training in this area, there are many places in Manhattan at night, with or without S.H.I.E.L.D."

Thor understood; it made sense upon reflection. If beauty alone could solve the problem, why invest so much in training various combat skills?

Natalia's extraordinary abilities led Nick Fury to decide to assign her to Peggy Carter for training. As a legendary figure, Carter would be the ideal mentor, and Natalia was likely to be groomed as her successor.

"This pair of wristbands is a reward for helping me find the hammer. When you have time, study its abilities; it will be very beneficial!"

Thor placed the magical bracelet awarded by the system on Natalia's wrist. The bracelet vanished, but Natalia felt an intrinsic connection with it.
